Rue Daguerre

In yesterday's post I completely messed up Cara Black's book title, Murder BELOWMontparnasse.I've been doing mea culpas nonstop since. Granted it could be a case of belated jet lag or dyslexia or being so enthralled with her book I skipped the title or none of the above. Please forgive.

Rue Daguerre is mentioned in Murder BELOW Montparnasse and it turns out to be a darling rue I had previously overlooked chock-a-block with everything under the sun to eat etc.

Plus Brit watercolor artist Ian Sidaway let me know he was coming to town AND staying on rue Daguerre. Did I have a choice to miss this street?

When I Googled rue DaguerreAirBnB popped up with rock bottom 18 m room for a mere 40€ right in the coeur de Daguerre. Y'all come.

A good portion of the rue is paved and for pedestrians only much like tres charmante rue Cler.

A plethora of cafes line this street...

The French are Very Big on honey/miel in case you'd like to be French. French girl had it every single morning on her toast for breakies.

You can DIY here at Famille Mary #11 rue Daguerre. I wish they had the same with peanut butter...you didn't hear me say that.

Paella is on offer at the clever fish monger - this I could go for in a big way.

I'm a big moules/mussel fan too. These are hot of the presses fresh in from Brittany.

A vintage clothing shop of course on rue Daguerre and mentioned in the new hot book, Paris C'est Chic (with English blurbs included).

Cows ABOVE Montparnasse? The French do love their cows and rightly so. Now that I've petted a few I can heartliy say they are well-behaved/bien elevee and perfectly lovely.

The Dog Of The Day is going BELOWMontparnasse (NOT 'under' as some idiot would have it ahem). You better believe it!

Bonjour Carol. What a fun walk rue Daguerre. I have not visited in years. Will have to swing by next time I am in Paris. I find this is one of the most charming things about the French capital: Even in the middle of a busy quartier like Montparnasse, one still finds charming small streets with a village feel...

It looks like things are running smoothly for you in Paris, and you are enjoying yourself. Bonne continuation! Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)

PB~Outrageous that you are not considered Presse.You have gazillions tuned into your every word (and photo which as we all know are worth a thousand words). I am quite offended for you that you are not receiving the respect and admiration due the "presse". B

Love the morning “conversation” with your blog and my coffee : ) Honey’s natural antigens protect people from ploen allergies in their environment. MANY oldtimers in France profonde will have some ith their morning coffee or afternoon tea :)

net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the expenses.But he's tryiong none the less. I've been using WordPress on several websites for about a year and am worried about switching to another platform. I have heard great things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress content into it? Any kind of help would be greatly appreciated!
